The_Gabe Posted December 10, 2010 Share Posted December 10, 2010 To those guys who lost 2bil+ (major party hat owners that lost them somehow) I can see why some people end up killing themselves. Not that real money (nor pixel money is a good reason to) but I can see how much a loss like that hurts. People have lost their car, their belongings, their house, even family or loved ones, and never thought of commiting suicide, and you can "see why some people end up killing themselves" over losing money in a computer game? Life isn't something you can put a price on, certainly not in gp. It scares me to see how people value life. Suicide is never an option, no matter how much you lose. Suicide is always an option. Three months banishment to 9gag is something i would never wish upon anybody, not even my worst enemy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Merre Posted December 11, 2010 Share Posted December 11, 2010 Doesnt make it any less stupid though. Worthless coloured pixels in a game of some form that has no real values lose is meaningless comapred top actually losing real money that clothes you and feeds you and keeps a roof over your head If you just see the items as worthless pixels, why bother spending time on a forum about the game RS where items are valuable and important... Makes no sense at all :blink: 2016 goals: all skills +30mil xp - Completed this goal 11th December 2016 2017 goals: get at least 3 more master capes (start xp: invention done@21st Jan, mining done@2nd April & ranged 76/104mil done@June 20th) & all skills +40mil xp (done 24th August) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zierro Posted December 11, 2010 Share Posted December 11, 2010 How much money per hour could he make? Lets say 1mil an hour, lets say minimum wage in his country/state is $8 an hour. If he lost 100mil thats equal to $800 loss. To those guys who lost 2bil+ (major party hat owners that lost them somehow) I can see why some people end up killing themselves. Not that real money (nor pixel money is a good reason to) but I can see how much a loss like that hurts.That's like saying you lose $40-80 every time you go to sleep :shame:Can't put a price on pixels unless you're actually willing to sell them to someone for real $ Not to mention the time it takes to find a job, the commute, the expense of the commute, the fact that you can play a video game almost whenever you want but your work is on a schedule, etc. And people generally enjoy playing video games unlike working. I always found it humorous when people try to directly equate time to money. "That walk to the park cost me $8!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DiscoShazam Posted December 23, 2010 Share Posted December 23, 2010 So power cut out, you lost a few pixels.Therefore this is reason to throw a strop and quit the game? Must remember that throwing a strop and quitting is the method for dealing with minor inconveniences these days.If I remembered that I culda quit uni months ago cause the bus was 2 minutes late! Well, it would be quitting pixels over pixels, really. No big deal. XD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zierro Posted December 24, 2010 Share Posted December 24, 2010 lol I said in there that money, real or virtual is a terrible reason to consider that, however I do see why people feel despair enough to consider when you look at it at 1000's of hours of work lost. I didnt say in there that I would agree with their reasons, however I do agree that it can be extremely traumatic and cause real phycological pain on someone even though money (or pixel rs money) doesnt really mean much in it of itself. I am just saying that someone shouldnt be so harsh on someone that loses "virtual items" as the cost behind it does have a value in time. There is an extreme example of a kid named Mitchell Henderson that killed himself because he lost his iPod Admittedly, it would suck very much to lose something you've invested tons of time and energy into. But to kill yourself or become emotionally unstable after the fact is still ridiculous. It just doesn't make sense to me. Why ruin your entire future just because your past got ruined? I guess it would be necessary for me to add that I think 99.99% of suicides are completely unwarranted though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lukeypro Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 I was down in Brimhaven dungeon, cannoning fire giants for slayer. Had full guthans, whip, defender, black mask, cannon, etc. Power decides to just RANDOMLY go out, and when I log back in, sitting in lumbridge with Guthans top, bottom, and whip. [bleep] slayer.[bleep] the power grid.[bleep] slayer.[bleep] cannons.[bleep] runescape. I know I know, ring of life. Shouldnt have to worry about being disconnected anywhere I'm in combat. And you would think the cannon would stop firing after you loose connection. The hell with this game. Canceling my membership and putting this as the reason. You died killing fire giants? lmao, that's a chin-up moment for you haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
